I just noticed the crowns on some provinces. Reading a little I found that those are Victory Points. Does that means that we are playing an VP game? How many VPs are needed to win?

Yeah, server was down. I have to turn it off to start new games. When I did the final restart last night I was knackered, and forgot to restart it. D'oh!

Anyway, fixed.

The crowns are VPs but we're not playing a VP point game, so they don't bring you victory. They do have some value though: each one produces one candle a turn for its owner.

I don't know who started that rumor.

Isn't a VP the equivalent of a dom-strength 5 temple? That's not always a candle a turn.

I thought it was the equivalent of a dom-10 temple.

If you click on a temple of yours, you'll see something like:

God 0
Prophet 10
Home Province 10
Temples 30
Victory Points 5

Depends on how many Temples and Victory Points you have of course. I'm sure a while back I heard VP's were a dom-strength 5 temple, but I lost the thread.

Not a thread(well probably is)--in 'da rules' pg 93. Am I the only maroon who actually purchased this game?(no wait actually 'hinted' it with website address for x-mas gift from the wife ) Anyway it spreads as if you had Max Dom of 5. But according to rules ONLY if 'victory points' special victory condition is selected at game set-up. As Im new to this game, havent really paid attention when Ive played against the computer.

The manual needs some updating. It's wrong on this for sure. If you see a crown on the map, it's spreading dominion. The only question is how much.
